Hey people you're all over the place with your posts. :wacko: What happened with having one thread to discuss who won and what happened. :unsure:

Okay, why don't we start with Roy's knock-out of Brendan!

That was pretty good. I know I said I was giving Brendan the edge, but I'm so glad Roy won. I don't think Dana was so happy about it. Did y'all see his face when he was standing behind Roy? The sourpuss. :laugh:

im happy with big country getting the win, i just feel he got ripped off though, no watch? no car? no added lil bonus prize

they only had to give away 1 gift since it was only 1 weight class this season and no bonuses? dana truly has no love for roy, i bet he had keys in his pocket and a watch in his coat for if brendon won :sad:

I thought Roy's win would be on the ground! When Brendon got back up I thought he had a good chance to knock Roy out! I was very surprised when Roy knocked Brendon out! Also it almost seemed like it killed Dana that Roy won. I am glad though that Roy won! It was kinda funny to when he came out to weird Al's I'm fat song!

Ok, got it. Madsen won by split decision according to the play by play on sherdog.

1st - Matt Mitrione really surprised me. I was looking for the Mitrione we saw at the end of TUF so I was expecting Marcus to win.

2nd - Well, I'm disappointed Veach didn't win, but just like his fight in February, he showed all heart and no quit. But good shot by Edgar and he was able to finish. :wink:

3rd - Boy, this Bocek guy was all business, got in there and got the job done PDQ. Impressive.

4th - Okay, I saw where y'all were giving Kimbo props and he deserves 'em. I thought H.A. won the 1st and Kimbo the 2nd, the third was iffy for both of them but I was gonna give it to Alexander. I guess the judges saw it differently. :wink: I think Houston should have gone with some punches to go with those kicks. And, when he swiped Kimbo to the ground, he liked totally wasted a good 2 seconds just standing there; he could have finished Kimbo, but he didn't.

5th - Well, we all discussed this in that other thread. I think everyone agreed Jones won that. Boy, that was brutal. :blink:

6th - James McSweeney looked like he really prepared for this fight. He looked quite a bit improved since TUF. I was hoping Schoonover would give him more of a fight. Props to McSweeney.

7th - :happydancing: Yay Roy!!! I was hoping Roy would win this thing. I figured Brendan will be in the UFC anyway. He's got the right stuff. I hope Roy keeps doing well and can win some more fights in the HW division. Should be interesting.

I think it's shameful the way Dana is acting towards Roy. You could tell he was clearly not excited that Roy had won. I bet he's over the moon that Kimbo won though. And before you say anything Chuck, that's not a slur against Kimbo, it's one against Dana and his obvious favoritism.

I was wondering why we didn't see Madsen's fight. But, I'm glad to hear he won. Wish things had turned out differently for Veach, but he was still exciting to watch and I look forward to his next fight.

I like Frankie Edgar and was glad to see him win.

Roy impressed me finally in his win.

Bones Jones messed up Matt and had his number, too bad he had to have those illegal strikes. He would have won it without those.

Mitrione earned some points with me tonight. He was humble in his win and gave props.

Bocek, wow, great fight there.

I had Kimbo taking it. Alexander wanted nothing of him it seemed at first.

Was hoping Titties would knock out Mick's Wienie. Wow that sounds creepy. Too bad I missed the first minute of the fight with the glitch in getting the fight on instead of the graphics.

All in all, a fun night of fights. Looking forward to next week.

WAR BJ!!!!!!

That was classic. I about fell off the couch. When the anouncer said Oh no he didn't I about spit mu coke out. Classic and a great fit for him also. I thought he did what he needed to do and good to one of us fat guys get a break. LoL

Can one of you who know the rules real well explain why Jones was disqualified? Seems Mazzagatti just likes to screw people in their fights. Matt was done evern beofre the strikes.

The only argument against Mazagatti would be that he should have stopped the fight before the illegal elbows even happened. Even that would be up for discussion though because Hamill was defending fairly well.

However, illegal elbows (straight down, leading with the point of the elbow) are what "finished" the fight. Since Hamill couldn't continue, Jones was disqualified. That is the correct call to make. The shame of it is that Jones was going to win that fight anyway. If he would have kept throwing legal strikes, I'm sure he would have won.

I was really worried for Matt especially when he didn't get up. I cringe when I think of the force of those elbows coming straight down on the bones surrounding the eyes and where the nose comes into the skull base. Scary stuff. People don't realize how thin some of these bones are and just how close your brain is. I hope Matt is going to be okay.

I hated to see Jones lose like that (especially since he was winning even w/o the illegal elbows :wink:), and I hate to see Matt win like that. I wish they could have just called it a NC, but I guess rules are rules.

I agree, I think Mazi maybe should have called it sooner, but tough call with Matt still defending (as best he could :wink:).

So they kept announcing that "Titties" was going to be active duty Army in a few days. So did he go out and get fatter on purpose to try and get kicked out? He will be automatically put in the "fat boy program" because there's no way he can pass the BMI tests and probably all of the PT requirements. What was the deal with him?

Yeah! We were wondering how some of these guys appeared to be in WORSE shape than they were on the show. They knew they would be fighting a couple months ago. Why didn't they get into better shape?

That's why the heavyweight division has so many boring fights. It's the weight class for the lazy people who don't have to stay in shape to make weight.

Kizer actually reported that the Jones/Hamill DQ was the first fight ever to use the "replay".

Maz stopped the fight, took the point and asked for the replay,
then the commission called the fight as a DQ.
Maz did everything textbook.

I don't fault Maz for the way he handled this.

Yeah, what's up (like Mike said) with some of these guys when they know they have a fight coming up. You'd think they'd be really getting in shape and condition. Schoonover really disappointed me in his fight. I thought he'd give McSweeney more competition. :wink:
